Chinese women's volleyball ushered in the second round of the World Championships rematch. The importance of this game is self-evident to both sides and is a key battle for the ticket to the knockout round. The Chinese women's volleyball team defeated the Netherlands 3-2 (22-25/25-21/25-15/18-25/15-12). The Chinese women's volleyball team continued to maintain the high ranking of second place in Group E. The defeated Netherlands ranked 6th with 4 wins and 3 losses. If the best in this game is selected, the substitute Yang Hanyu is well deserved. When Wang Yuanyuan encountered the opponent's tight blocking and defense, Yang Hanyu scored 13 points and made 12 of the offensive 19 dunks, sharing the offensive pressure of the side attack to the maximum extent. She successfully transformed from the marginal substitute in the last Olympic cycle and was expected to continue to catch up with Wang Yuanyuan for the starting position.
Before the start of this Women's Volleyball Team World Championships, the Chinese women's volleyball team only participated in an international competition in the World Women's Volleyball League, but it was controversial. The starting lineup was solidified and there was no secret. The Seven Fairies conquer the world. Whether they play well or not, they are almost no exchange. The outside world has been calling for the surprises of the Chinese women's volleyball team. You should know that as early as the Lang Ping era, there were surprises and newcomers in almost every competition, Yuan Xinyue in the 2014 World Championships, Zhang Changning in the 2015 World Cup, and Gong Xiangyu in the 2016 Olympic Games, and Li Yingying in the 2018 World Championships. The Chinese women's volleyball team has few new faces in this World Championships. Even the first time participating in the Gaoyi , Wang Yuanyuan, Yang Hanyu, Wang Weiyi , Diao Linyu , and Chen Peiyan all participated in the national team training camp during the last Olympic cycle.
In the match against the Dutch women's volleyball team, the starting deputy attacker Wang Yuanyuan made 2 of 8 dunks and was replaced by Yang Hanyu. After appearing, Yang Hanyu became the real surprise called by fans. She played in the No. 3 position many times. Due to the lack of research on it, Yang Hanyu's splashing rhythm was still uncontrollable, which made the Chinese women's volleyball team's second height play in the whole game. Finally, he scored 13 points (19 deductions, 12 blocked, 1 mistake was blocked). The success rate of the splashing reached 63.15%, and even beat the captain Yuan Xinyue, following the two main attackers Li Yingying and 23 points and Wang Yunhua 14 points. In addition, Yuan Xinyue scored 12 points and Gong Xiangyu 11 points. All 5 attackers on the field scored in double digits, and the second setter Diao Linyu also scored 5 points.
197CM tall Yang Hanyu is the second height of the Chinese women's volleyball team, second only to 2 meters Yuan Xinyue. After winning the World Youth Championship and MVP in 2017, she was recruited by Lang Ping into the national team the following year. However, her basic skills were relatively weak at the time, and small ball connections and mobile blocking were shortcomings. In addition, the attack at the second position could hardly be played. The 2018 World Championships and the Tokyo Olympics were respectively Hu Mingyuan With Wang Yuanyuan, he missed the opportunity to play. Yang Hanyu's progress in the new Olympic cycle is very obvious. The World Women's Volleyball League against the United States, this World Championship group stage against Brazil, and this rematch against the Netherlands were all difficult to play. However, Yang Hanyu did not have the invisible performance when he was in danger in the past, but instead took a bold move. In particular, in the game against the Dutch women's volleyball team, the offensive end left the opponent helpless. He cooperated with Diao Linyu to play the No. 3 position with great strength, and even if the opponent guessed, it was difficult to stop and defend, becoming the hero of the winning game.
good performance comes from daily hard training and accumulation of game experience. Yang Hanyu's competitiveness in the secondary attack line has an additional choice for the position of the Chinese women's volleyball team. Moreover, her technical and tactical level of her performance against the Dutch women's volleyball team is not inferior to Wang Yuanyuan. In the future, the Chinese women's volleyball team will start the competition first in the starting secondary attack line of the Paris Olympic cycle. It is possible to copy Rio cycle Xu Yunli , Yan Ni , Yuan Xinyue and Yang Junjing is not divided into the main substitute. Whoever is in good condition will be on the rise. In other positions, I hope that there can be multiple players with close strength to form a healthy competition and jointly promote the progress and growth of the Chinese women's volleyball team.
